Great News for Horses with Symptoms of Ulcers

Here's the Scoop!

Progressive Nutrition knows how many horse owners are dealing with ulcers in their horses. Treatment is costly and requires a great deal of labor. Progressive Nutrition is preparing to launch an ulcer product that helps horses eat better and train better.

Progressive Nutrition Ulcer Formula is a pelleted product that is fed with grain, twice a day. Our field studies have shown great results in helping horses that display signs of ulcers.


Progressive Nutrition Ulcer Formula will be available in February.

My aged horse has had frequent laminitis, usually treated with bute. I am lately becoming aware of gastrointestinal damage related to bute, specifically ulcers, that can themselves contribute to laminitis! I've been - happily - feeding Pro-Advantage for a couple of years and am very pleased to hear of your upcoming "ulcer-formula!" More info. on it, please - e.g., would I feed it in addition to ProAdvantage (which is not a grain)? When can I get it? thanks, Circle S Arabians

wow! I'm so excited about the ulcer formula. Can you tell us what th emain ingredients are, and, will it be safe for foundered horses? thanks

The main ingredient is a propietary blend of ingredients shown to improve the symptoms of ulcers. Yes, it is perfectly safe to feed to foundered horses.

Yes, you would add Ulcer Formula to the ProAdvantage or any other grain/feed source. You can purchase it via your local PN dealer or call 888-239-3185 to our customer service line to order directly.

Thanks

I am interested to know how this product compares with Succeed, GastroGard or other ulcer treatment methods. I use PN products with great success, but unlike your other products, there isn't much information on this product available on your website.

Thank you!
